PEIslander Posted September 29, 2008 #7 Posted September 29, 2008 Hey Skidmark, Some of us have mistaken the low brake fluid light for a low oil. On the dash readout the top left indicator is sidestand, the one below it is low brake fluid and the one below that is low oil. If its brake fluid it could be either front or rear resevoir low. When I got my bike a few years ago the light would come on when I was accelerating hard and I thought it was oil but it turned out to be the front brake resevoir. The low oil indicator looks like an old oil can and the brake fluid looks like this (O) with a drop in the middle of the O. ( I tried to attach a picture but couldn't) . The picture of the dash monitor is on page 8 in the manual http://labs.trunkful.com/8385servicemanual.pdf Good Luck Rick

PEIslander Posted September 30, 2008 #9 Posted September 30, 2008 No sweat, We're all learning from each other on this site. I felt a bit silly myself when it happened to me but in retrospect the symbols Yamaha used aren't very good so we'll blame them.
